Teheran tossed two shutout innings, allowing one hit and one walk while striking out one, in Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Astros.
He threw 18 of 30 pitches for strikes and worked in all his breaking pitches, as he gets ready to pitch for Team Colombia in the WBC. Teheran failed to reach 200 innings last year for the first time since 2013, but his 2.0 BB/9 was the best rate of his career, and with an improving team around him the 26-year-old could be headed for a big 2017.
